I love the Zoom integration. It is really cool to save the Zoom meeting as an item. For me it would be even more valuable if:
the item is created when the zoom meeting is planned, currently the item is created when the meeting is started
if the saved Zoom chat (can be used to make some notes) is saved in the monday.com item in the info boxes. I know the chat can be saved and then manually added to the info boxes, but automation is always better than manual work.
Alternatively and maybe even better is when the integration works also the other way around. For example: creating an item with status = âZoom meetingâ, a date and a person column > creates a Zoom meeting and invites attendees listed in the person column on date and time listed in the date column and with subject the title of the item.
Finally it would be very helpful if we can integrate different Zoom accounts with our monday.com account so that each team member (and board owner) can manage his/her own zoom meetings.
Answering my own question maybe it can help others.
I found a way to reverse the proces by using Integromat (free version): create a Zoom meeting when a given status column is set to e.g. âMeetingâ. It creates the meeting in Zoom based on date/time, name and description of the item, and then updates another field in the item to display the meeting URL.
Thank you for this great feedback! We actually revised and improved our integration thanks to you!
Weâve added a new recipe that will create an item in your board once the meeting is planned (per your request )
In regards to the chat-box, currently, Zoom chat-box is not supported by our integration, however, this is definitely on our road map so stay tuned!
In regards to working the other way - this is also a great suggestion and itâs something weâre considering! Again, stay tuned for additional improvements!
Lastly, I want to make sure you know you can connect multiple zoom accounts so each team member can track and manage their own meetingsđ
Thanks again for the great feedback! We really appreciate it!
I managed to build this with Integromat, but it would be helpful for others if there is a native monday.com recipe for this. Off cource the Zoom meeting needs to get updated when date / time changes.
Just so others can benefit. The below Integromat scenario will update / create a Zoom meeting when a status column is set to âMeetingâ. The start date / time is from a date/time column and the name of the item is the meeting name. The scenario writes the Zoom joining URL back to the item.
Thanks for this information @basdebruin. Iâm trying to setup a similar scenario. Iâve clicked custom webhook as your scenario indicates but webhooks is asking me to âchoose a hookâ to add. What hook did you add to start this scenario?
Oops, that is a 2 year old post. Not sure if Make (the new Integromat) works the same. Maybe @JCorrell can comment on Make vs. Integromat in this case.
The webhook to add is the webhook Integromat / Make is giving you when you start the scenario. It is the first module in the Make scenario and it gives you a URL that you fill in in monday webhook.
Thanks @basdebruin. Make seems to have similar scenario options so Iâm going to continue to try replicating it as best as I could off of the reference you previously provided. Wish me luck.
I have not tried the Zoom module. However, I will address the webhook question in Make.
The easiest way to connect monday to make is to use the monday specific webhook module. It is named âWatch Eventsâ and can be found at the very end of all the monday modules. If everyone in the world was not using the term âwebhookâ I suppose âWatch Eventsâ is ok. In any case, it is not exactly the same as the webhook that Bas had in his example. But for this use, it is arguably better.
Note that when setting up a new webhook (watch events) you will need to click add and give it a name.
Only click here if you are a nerd.
The other major difference with Make v. Integromat with regards to webhooks, in Make any given webhook can only be used in 1 scenario. In Integromat you could technically have the same webhook initiate 2 (or more) different scenarios.
maybe it can help others.
the Zoom meeting needs to get updated when date / time changes.
